Post count mod
 

I want to stop post counts increasing in certain forums. I know there is an option to stop members post count going up when they post in a certain forum but i want to stop the post count going up in certain forums altogether, i dont want it to count to the overall website post count, ive looked and not sure how, can someone help me please?

lol go to each category and mark don't count posts in all of them?

I thought that stops post counts going up for the user post count not towards the whole overall post count of the website? :S

Oh.... I understand what you mean now. Sorry Guess I don't really know how. Maybe look in where it sends it or reads it and records it to the post count. Why do you care so much? Do you just have a huge ass spam forum?

no, i just have purchased a video feature for my site and every time someone adds a video or a video comment it counts to the overall forum post count which i dont want ya see? :P

The post count for each forum is in the $forumcache and totalled for the index.php page at the bottom of the index.php file. Just edit to the code to basically say "if $forumid is xx, don't add it into the total". There is a thread about this here already where we wrote out the code to do this. Perhaps do a search on "forumcache" and see what comes up.

Lynne, are you talking about this thread, the code you posted here:

That may be the one (there were a couple around the same time, I think). I might do it a little differently (put the condition about the $totals and only have them increment if NOT that forumid), but it's the basic idea.
